Re: more on Larry Davis

Fair point - and not the least bit surprised you were the first to bring it
up. Practically a two-horse race between you and Don..........not that I'm

Anyway, if he did have something to do with the Minnesota situation, or had
knowledge of it, it would be pretty gutsy to attempt circumventing the rules
again. At a minimum, at least we have a staffer who knows what NOT to do as
well as anyone.
